Ep.24 | Two Words: Slow Down 26:22

1+ y ago26:22

26:22

You don’t want to miss this episode. In my opinion anyway (but I’m biased). Clearly, I’ve been away from the microphone for a few weeks—much longer than even I expected for sure. But I’ve had good reason. And the lessons I’ve been learning during this hiatus have only helped to strengthen what I’ve been wanting to say to my loyal listeners as I tal…

Ep.23 | Move Your Ass 21:30

2y ago21:30

21:30

Sometimes life feels insurmountable. Those are the moments when you don't believe you have the strength or stamina to overcome the obstacles in your path—the seasons when you seriously consider giving up. You're not alone. We all face seasons in life when molehills feel like mountains. But there's always hope if we will learn to pause long enough t…

Ep.22 | Bet On Yourself 27:49

2y ago27:49

27:49

"If it doesn't bring you peace, profit, or purpose, then don't give it your time, energy, or attention." —Unknown I posted that quote on social media over the last few days. As you might suppose, the response was affirming. Because it just makes sense, right? So why does such simple wisdom appear to be so difficult to implement in our lives? Why do…

Ep.21 | Is Your Pain Self-Inflicted? 25:51

2y ago25:51

25:51

No one likes to admit the possibility they might create the majority of their own problems or that they are the source of their own pain. Even considering the idea is slightly embarrassing. Or shameful. But is it true? I hate to be the one to tell you, but it’s true. Most of our pain is self-inflicted. Deliberately? Not usually. Inadvertently? Most…

Ep.20 | Shut Up and Relax 21:16

2y ago21:16

21:16

Does that title sound a bit harsh? Well, it is certainly abrupt. Why? Because sometimes there's no sugarcoating the truth. And the truth can hurt. But there are times we need someone to speak boldly and get our attention. That's what I hope to do for us in this episode. My goal is to both challenge and encourage us all to remember the power we poss…

Ep.19 | Too Much Thinking 26:44

2y ago26:44

26:44

We overthink. And the thoughts bouncing around in our brains shape our world and become our reality. We also take life too seriously. Is it any wonder we are so emotionally stressed and uptight? What would happen if we chose to relax, care less, and see life as a beautiful gift? Because it is precisely that, my friends. That truth is available for …

Ep.18 | Take One Small Step 21:32

2y ago21:32

21:32

Most of the time, many people who are trying to make significant and lasting changes in their life do one major thing wrong—they go too far too fast. It's like quitting a habit cold turkey. You are either going to fail now or relapse later because you bit off more than you can chew. Well, breaking free from the acceptance of others is even harder b…

Ep.17 | Don’t Put on Your Face 25:39

2+ y ago25:39

25:39

Have you heard the phrase (or used the phrase) I need to put on my face? It’s an idiom about putting on makeup; however, the concept can be applied in much broader terms. Because we all put on a “face” of sorts. Our face (or public persona) is the outward identity we reveal to others which may or may not portray the true, authentic you. In this epi…

Ep.16 | It's Not My Fault, Dammit. 24:16

2+ y ago24:16

24:16

Have you noticed that it's nobody's fault anymore? No one is responsible. For anything. Personal responsibility is becoming ancient history. It's no longer a virtue we value. Everyone wants to fight for their rights. But few want to be held accountable for their behavior. For their personal choices. Does life actually work that way? Has it ever? I'…

Ep.15 | Love: Feeling, Choice, Both, Other? 22:04

2+ y ago22:04

22:04

What is love anyway? Has it been so exploited or so poorly explained that we really have no idea anymore? Maybe our ideas about love are the very reason we don't understand it in a healthy way. Or perhaps it's only my perspective on the whole subject that is wrong. Who knows? But either way, that's my focus on this episode for your consideration. M…

Ep.14 | Broken Beyond Repair 21:08

2+ y ago21:08

21:08

The ‘middle ground’ of compromise is becoming scarcer and scarcer. Tolerance—once a cherished concept in our world—has disappeared from our human vernacular. We are a harshly divided world. Is that the way it has always been? Or is it getting increasingly worse? Are we broken beyond repair? Is there a bridge from the chasm of conflict to one of dec…

Ep.13 | It's Worth the Investment 25:20

2+ y ago25:20

25:20

Life is change. And change is hard. That about sums it up, right. Every time we turn around we have to adjust to some occurrence in the world—or in our personal world at least. Obviously, that's not a newsflash. But how do you make good decisions when it comes to inevitable change? How do you discern where to invest your time, energy, and emotions …

Ep.9 | When Life Gets Hijacked 25:47

There are only two areas of life—two—what you can control and what you can’t. You know the saying: 10% of life is what happens to you and 90% is how you respond to it. When you focus on what you can control, you become strong. When you ignore what you can’t control, you become free. So that means you must give 100% to the 10%. And while all of that…

Is there a relevant connection between the life of an NFL player and the average person?

Living a life of authenticity isn’t a strategy. It’s a state of being. Being a person who doesn’t give in to the whims of others or even the ways of the world to impress or get ahead. Because when our motivation is to please people, we pretend. We put on masks which is a miserable way to live. But that’s how life works, right? That’s what many peop…
